Previously, doing so resulted in invalid data or crash.

Allowed users to specify which lookups or transforms ("nested lookus")
are available for fields. The implementation is now class based.

The new way is trying to call first method 'as_' + connection.vendor.
If that doesn't exist, then call as_sql().
Also altered how lookup registration is done. There is now
RegisterLookupMixin class that is used by Field, Extract and
sql.Aggregate. This allows one to register lookups for extracts and
aggregates in the same way lookup registration is done for fields.

Implemented nested lookups
But there is no support of using lookups outside filtering yet.
commit 4d219d4cde
Author: Anssi Kääriäinen <akaariai@gmail.com>
Date: Wed Nov 27 22:07:30 2013 +0200
Initial implementation of custom lookups
The `remove()` and `clear()` methods of the related managers created by
`ForeignKey`, `GenericForeignKey`, and `ManyToManyField` suffered from a
number of issues. Some operations ran multiple data modifying queries without
wrapping them in a transaction, and some operations didn't respect default
filtering when it was present (i.e. when the default manager on the related
model implemented a custom `get_queryset()`).
Fixing the issues introduced some backward incompatible changes:
- The implementation of `remove()` for `ForeignKey` related managers changed
from a series of `Model.save()` calls to a single `QuerySet.update()` call.
The change means that `pre_save` and `post_save` signals aren't called anymore.
- The `remove()` and `clear()` methods for `GenericForeignKey` related
managers now perform bulk delete so `Model.delete()` isn't called anymore.
- The `remove()` and `clear()` methods for `ManyToManyField` related
managers perform nested queries when filtering is involved, which may
or may not be an issue depending on the database and the data itself.
Refs. #3871, #21174.
Thanks Anssi Kääriäinen and Tim Graham for the reviews.
This patch introduces the Prefetch object which allows customizing prefetch
operations.
This enables things like filtering prefetched relations, calling select_related
from a prefetched relation, or prefetching the same relation multiple times
with different querysets.
When a Prefetch instance specifies a to_attr argument, the result is stored
in a list rather than a QuerySet. This has the fortunate consequence of being
significantly faster. The preformance improvement is due to the fact that we
save the costly creation of a QuerySet instance.
Thanks @akaariai for the original patch and @bmispelon and @timgraham
for the reviews.
select_related('foo').select_related('bar') is now equivalent to
select_related('foo', 'bar').
Also reworded docs to recommend select_related(*fields) over select_related()
Sphinx generates left single quotes for apostrophes after
code markup, when right single quotes are required. The
easiest way to fix this is just by inserting the unicode
character for a right single quote.
Instances of the problem were found by looking for
">‘" in the generated HTML.
Additionally this patch solves the orthogonal problem that specialized
`QuerySet` like `ValuesQuerySet` didn't inherit from the current `QuerySet`
type. This wasn't an issue until now because we didn't officially support
custom `QuerySet` but it became necessary with the introduction of this new
feature.
Thanks aaugustin, akaariai, carljm, charettes, mjtamlyn, shaib and timgraham
for the reviews.
There were a couple of errors in ._dirty flag handling:
* It started as None, but was never reset to None.
* The _dirty flag was sometimes used to indicate if the connection
was inside transaction management, but this was not done
consistently. This also meant the flag had three separate values.
* The None value had a special meaning, causing for example inability
to commit() on new connection unless enter/leave tx management was
done.
* The _dirty was tracking "connection in transaction" state, but only
in managed transactions.
* Some tests never reset the transaction state of the used connection.
* And some additional less important changes.
This commit has some potential for regressions, but as the above list
shows, the current situation isn't perfect either.
Thanks Carl Meyer for the review.

tonnzor, jimmysong, Fandekasp and slurms.
Stylistic changes added by committer.
The guarantee that no queries will be made when accessing results is
done by new EmptyWhere class which is used for query.where and having.
Thanks to Simon Charette for reviewing and valuable suggestions.
This is the start of a deprecation path for the depth kwarg on
select_related. Removing this will allow us to update select_related so
it chains properly and have an API similar to prefetch_related.
Thanks to Marc Tamlyn for spearheading and initial patch.

Objects can be fast-path deleted if there are no signals, and there are

Deferred models now automatically update only the fields which are
loaded from the db (with .only() or .defer()). In addition, any field
set manually after the load is updated on save.
The qs.bulk_create() method did not work with large batches together
with SQLite3. This commit adds a way to split the bulk into smaller
batches. The default batch size is unlimited except for SQLite3 where
the batch size is limited to 999 SQL parameters per batch.
Thanks to everybody who participated in the discussions at Trac.
This commit tackles a couple of issues. First, in certain cases there
were some mixups if field.attname or field.name should be deferred.
Field.attname is now always used.
Another issue tackled is a case where field is both deferred by
.only(), and selected by select_related. This case is now an error.
A lot of thanks to koniiiik (Michal Petrucha) for the patch, and
to Andrei Antoukh for review.
only consider some fields (PostgreSQL only).
For this, the ``distinct()`` QuerySet method now accepts an optional
list of model fields names and generates ``DISTINCT ON`` clauses on
these cases. Thanks Jeffrey Gelens and Anssi Kääriäinen for their work.

In the future, I'd like to fix this properly, but the current behavior
has the advantage of being consistent across the board (and changing it

In extreme cases, some fields are expensive to load from the database
(e.g. GIS fields requiring conversion, or large text fields). This
commit adds defer() and only() methods to querysets that allow the
caller to specify which fields should not be loaded unless they are
accessed.

opaque attributes. See the documentation of the "__in" lookup type for the

decision. Usually, leaving the MySQL collation alone will be the best solution,
but if you must change it, this gives a start to the information you need and
pointers to the appropriate place in the MySQL docs.
There's a small chance I also got all the necessary Sphinx markup correct, too
(it builds without errors, but I may have missed some chances for glory and
